Concrete structures are cracked in tension at working loads. The opening and closing of the
existing cracks during load variations renders these structures nonlinear elastic. Under …

Purpose: Purpose of this paper is the theoretical formulation of elasto-dynamics behaviour of
fully cracked concrete beams for two-degree of freedom (DOF) dynamical system. Such …

In this Paper, a theory of single sagging planer weightless elasto-flexible cables is
proposed. In reference to the instantaneous natural state, hypoelastic rate-type constitutive …

Investigated herein are the dynamic responses of three different single degree of freedom
(SDOF) bilinear dynamical models of a cracked concrete beam subjected to the El Centro …

When structures are subjected to dynamic types of loads, cracks are fairly consistent. Under
dynamic loads, such structures exhibit nonlinear and inelastic behaviour. If a suitable load …

When subjected to time-dependent dynamic loading, concrete structures possess tension
cracks. Such existing internal cracks have a breathing action (opening-closing-reopening) …

A new theory of weightless sagging planer elasto-flexible cables under point loads is
developed earlier by the authors and used for predicting the nonlinear dynamic response of …

In this paper, the behavior of masonry columns under working load has been studied. The
effect of cracking on compression area of column or variation of moment of inertia of column …
